That may indicate a short circuit in the speaker wiring, causing the amp to go into protect mode.

Awesome glad you sorted it out before I had a chance to respond!!
So what did you end up doing for upgrades? I'm getting ready to go down that rabbit hole myself for my F36!! It will be a summer of fun!

The m0bridge K2 8.1.1 might come later in the summer, after a full color correction of my car, PPF and ceramic coat, I have a few chips to fix with a difficult paint finish to touch up (mineral white). Damn this hobby is expensive!! I kept my Earthquake under seat woofers and Morel Hybrid 402 for the front doors from my previous F30 install, so it should be interesting to make a comparison with the HK system. This time around I'll take some response measurements with my Smaart rig before and after the upgrades. I have to wonder if a better passive crossover for the HK door speakers might prove beneficial? I haven't opened the door panel yet to see what is there now, but I suspect it's just a capacitor. I'm waiting for it to warm up. Summer tire swap happening tomorrow if the weather is nice!

HK and Hifi just use a single capictor on tweeter and nothing for a low pass filter on the door mid.
But Bill has shared a design for a superior crossover build and component for hifi and HK. It would also work with and improve most aftermarket passive crossovers no doubt. |

Thanks, I had an idea of using fiberglass but I got a 1/4 sheet of MDF for £5 and thought why not give it a go and see what happens. So I got the jig saw out, a few swear words and some fettling we got there. It took about a day and a half to sort the box out from scratch. It’s about 15l inside which was the minimum requirement for the sub (focal P 27v2) 300w rms. If anyone is doing a similar setup I would advise using the lowest setting on the crossover, for best results. This things pounds you and it’s clear all the way through the volume range.
